Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 450

The group had grown so used to Josefina's jaw-dropping looks that they were constantly speculating about what kind of guy could possibly be a match for their leader.

Josefina fired up her laptop, launched the software, and deftly controlled the robotic dog. The room buzzed with animated discussion.

...

Two hours later, the seven teammates stared at Josefina in awe before erupting into thunderous applause.

"Boss, you're a rockstar!"

"Boss, you're incredible!"

"Boss, you're my hero!"

"Boss, we're totally gonna crush it at next month's tech competition!"

Albert, barely able to contain his excitement, burst out, "That final move is gonna blow everyone's minds!"

Josefina breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll leave the fine-tuning to you guys. Reach out if you hit any snags."

"Don't worry, boss, we've got this!"

Josefina shut down her laptop and slipped it into her bag. "I'm heading out. You all should wrap up soon, too."

"Boss, we're gonna stick around a bit longer tonight to do some more tweaking."

"Cool, I'm out then." Josefina stood up, and Albert walked her to the door.

Albert was practically buzzing with excitement. "Boss, no wonder you're the best."

Josefina laughed, "Stop it, you're gonna make me blush."

"Boss, I'm not just flattering you, it's the truth."

"Albert, that's enough. You don't need to walk me any further. Get back up there."

"Sure thing, boss. Be safe on your way home."

Without eating herself, Josefina took a bite of watermelon. "This is so sweet, Dorian, try some."

They shared the fruit together, and soon Annika arrived with more dishes: a plate of fried chicken, a plate of sushi, and a bowl of spicy chicken salad.

"Dorian, Annika's quite the chef," Josefina remarked.

"Yeah, she can cook up a storm. I didn't expect her to prepare all this just because you mentioned you wanted dumplings."

It turned out to be quite the feast, but thankfully Dorian was home too, so they could share the meal. The two of them chatted and ate, enjoying a harmonious atmosphere.

Just then, Lena arrived home to find Dorian smiling, which stirred a hint of jealousy within her.

Dorian, the eldest son of the Harrison family, led a life of routine and was always polite with the family, never showing much emotion. His schedule was clockwork: when to head to the office, when to work out, and when to have breakfast.

But now, here he was, dining at nine o'clock, an utter anomaly.

Lena walked briskly over and sat down with a sweet smile, saying dutifully, "Dorian, I've completed all the tasks you assigned to me."
